How we handle shower tray repair in Plas Coch

A cracked or chipped shower tray does not always need replacing. If it’s solid underneath, it can generally be repaired in place, which is far less work than a replacement. If you are dealing with damage around the waste and a cracked shower tray, we can help.

Every job is backed for twelve months in Plas Coch and everywhere else. We return to put right any problem with the work.

Prices and what affects them

Repairs from £95. You will not pay by the hour. The price is based on:

  • Any earlier repairs that need removing first
  • How much damage there is
  • What the surface is made of
  • How hard the colour is to match

What it costs depends on how much damage there is and what kind, the material and how many jobs we combine into one visit. You get a fixed price from your photos, so there are no surprises on the day.

Send pictures for a quote

Phone pictures are fine. Ensure they show:

  • One sharp close-up of the damage
  • Whether it’s been repaired or coated before
  • Natural light rather than flash
  • Where you are, by postcode

Getting a quote takes a couple of minutes: photograph the damage, then the entire shower tray, include your postcode and send them to us. What comes back is a fixed price, not a guess.

For developers and builders, we fix damage before handover, saving last-minute replacements. We can visit several plots in one trip to keep costs down.

Builders, developers and site managers book us for snagging repairs, fixing chips and scratches before handover so nothing needs replacing. We’re CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor accredited.

Aftercare tips

How the surface is treated afterwards matters. Here’s what we suggest:

  • Rinse the tray after each shower
  • Ventilate the room after showers
  • Replace failing sealant promptly
  • Don’t stand heavy bottles on the tray

Rinse the tray down after showering, clean with mild cleaners, and keep the sealant in good condition so water can’t get underneath.

Failed sealant around a tray should be replaced quickly. Water gets behind and under the tray and can damage the floor below.

Common questions in Plas Coch

Will it make a mess?

Very little mess: we sheet and mask everything nearby, and we take our waste away with us.

Can I get a quote without a visit?

In nearly every case. We only ask to see it in person if the photos can’t show what we need.

Is my repair covered?

Every repair comes with our one-year guarantee. Ask us what it covers when you get your quote.

How long before I can shower?

Normally the day after. We will tell you the exact time when we finish.

How do I get a price for shower tray repair in Plas Coch?

Repairs from £95. Because every job differs, we price from pictures. You know the full cost before anything is booked.

Are you accredited?

We’re accredited with CHAS, Constructionline, SafeContractor, SMAS Worksafe and Builder’s Profile.

Is a repair better than a new one?

Generally, if the item is otherwise sound. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.

Can a cracked shower tray be repaired?

Usually, as long as it doesn’t flex. The crack is reinforced, filled and refinished.

Repair or replace in Plas Coch?

The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: removing the screen, breaking out tiles, relaying the base and re-tiling. Repairing it takes one visit. Prices start from £95. A repair typically costs much less than people expect, particularly next to the cost of replacement. Send photos and we will give you the exact figure.

Materials and what they mean for the repair

Acrylic

Acrylic trays are lighter and slightly flexible, so good support matters. Cracks and scratches can be repaired.

Ceramic

Ceramic trays are hard and glossy. Impacts can chip or crack them, and the repair is polished to match the shine.

Do you need shower tray repair in Plas Coch?

Most cracked trays are trays that flex: without a solid, level base underneath, every shower puts strain on it. Chips usually come from dropped bottles.

Send us a picture if you notice any of these:

  • Chipped corners or rims
  • Damage around the waste
  • A crack across the base
  • A tray that looks tired however much you clean it

Before booking anyone

  • How long the guarantee is and what it covers
  • Whether the colour is mixed to match
  • Whether the price is fixed and includes VAT
  • How long it needs to cure

Our hiring checklist

When a repair is not the answer

We’ll always be straight with you, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:

  • A tray that flexes because it was never properly supported
  • Leaking waste fittings
  • Trays cracked in several places

Not sure? Send photos and we will give you a straight answer before you book.

How it works

We turn up when we said we would, introduces themselves and checks the damage against your photos first. Dust sheets and masking tape go down before we open a single tin. Most visits take a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, and we leave the room as we found it.

  1. First, we check whether the tray moves.
  2. The damaged area is cleaned and opened up.
  3. Cracks are reinforced and the damage filled.
  4. The repair is shaped, colour matched and finished.
  5. We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.

How to prepare

  • Clear the area around the damage
  • Let the surface dry out before the visit
  • Mention if the room is upstairs or in a flat
